Austin is a city of big flavors, and thanks to this stunningly designed newcomer, Thai is now foremost among them. The outdoor patio with its modern chairs and tables is straight out of Dwell, while the lively interior glows with warm wood and the buzz of hungry diners. The menu is full of sophisticated, Thai-inspired noodles, grilled meats and curries from Austin’s beloved Rene Ortiz, best known for his Mexican cooking at La Condesa.
